ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES

Truss Inspiration

Porches are diverse in design meaning they’re are so many ways they can be shaped and formed. Whether its of something small, like a door canopy or small oak porch or something on an entirely larger scale for an entrance hall, with glazed walls, traditional framing and feature trusses to catch your guests’ eyes on arrival to your house. If you have any drawings or a rough sketch please do get in touch with our design team and we will go through your ideas.

Nothing adds Luxurious and grandeur your garden quite like a garden room designed with the addition of exposed timber, glazing and feature trusses. The elegance and beauty this will bring to your garden will have you spending the entire summer in your garden room. The garden room designs can range from conservatories or orangeries however it’s the roof structure which separates these two types of designs. We love to embark on a new challenge – therefore, if you want something different/your own design but need help on designs, contact us and our design team will help you make your garden room a reality

Probably the only type of building that opens itself up to allow the use of large scale feature trusses and exposed post and beam frames due to its vast open ceiling space. The value added to your property will sky rocket if a feature truss is used

ADVANCED CNC 5 AXIS MACHINERY We have the only machine of its kind in the UK. With this machine the largest sections we can manufacture are 12m x 1.0m x 0.6m

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Important Information

Option 1: Can be delivered in unassembled ‘kit’ form, ready for you or your builder to assemble on site. Each connecting parts of the truss is individually marked, thus making assembly easier for you or your hired help. This can be particularly useful if your trusses are to be ‘feature’ trusses inside an existing roof.

Option 2: Your truss is already fully assembled when loaded onto our trucks so they’re ready to be hoisted into position when arrived on site. In most cases, for a small extra cost you can choose to have your trusses delivered by a lorry fitted with a lifting device crane able to unload them directly onto the place where they have to be fixed in the building, we can arrange that for you – this is subject to size and configuration. If you wish to go with manual offload make sure a strong group is present as the trusses are relatively heavy; we would always recommend mechanical off-loading

Our standard lead times are 3 – 4 weeks for design and engineering (if required) then 4 weeks for manufacture. However, if you require the delivery earlier, it may be possible – please contact us to discuss. We always try and do our best to help our customers in the best way we can

We can offer you 4 different types of material (all of which we can manufacture and detail) however if you require an alternative species we will do our utmost to supply them

It is important that you include the exact delivery location for the trusses as this will be included in the quote; All prices are exclusive of VAT. All truss components come fully detailed for all fixings

We can machine all details including holes for bolts/pegs/dowels and cuttings for plates which is a small charge however this option is a massive time saver as no drilling needs to be done on site. No manufacturing to commence until our supplied detailed drawings are approved begin until you are completely satisfied with all sizes, dimensions and extras in which we will provide drawings for you to check

Stated above are only a handful of the more common connection, fixings and styles of feature trusses, if you require alternatives we will do our best to supply them. Please do have a look around our website for further products we have to offer you such as cladding, decking, fencing, glulam and treatments such as preservative and fire retardants.

TESTIMONIALS

Thank you – The help you gave us was truly amazing – you said yes to what seemed an impossible request in a heartbeat and what a difference it made – The house looked beautiful and we’re all so proud of what everyone achieved – the family were utterly overwhelmed by the sheer force of goodwill that everyone showed them

Gordon Whistance, In House Designer | BBC DIY SOS

It was an easy choice to move to using Glenalmond Timber’s floor joist system. It gives an improved specification for many aspects of the build, including acoustics, ease of installation, lack of bounce in the floor as well of course as cost effectiveness. A great all-round product, it’s a lot more than just a joist and the level of service from Fraser has been a joy. Whenever you deal with people such as that, the business process becomes a pleasure

Steven Streets, Technical Manager | Muir Group

The larch cladding we got from you is outstanding. We absolutely love the smooth riven effect. Thanks again for supplying the cladding

Adam Turner, Happy Customer

Thanks for the impromptu tour on Friday. I was very impressed with your set-up there, great to see yours and Martin’s enthusiasm for the business and getting quality products out into the market so we can build with quality materials

Angus MacDonald, Morgan Sindall

I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your team for my order. We received it this morning and I am very impressed with the quality of the cladding and also how well it was all packaged. I would certainly recommend you to anyone who may be looking for cladding in the future.
